Philadelphia, PA

Former Employee – worked at CVS Group

Prosgood training, working with a friendly staff, accommodating to scheduling needs, opportunity for growth.

Consdealing with annoying customers can be a downfall (as with any retail location), and you get a new manager every so often...(for me I only had 2 different managers in 3 years). That can be an adjustment to take into consideration.

Advice to Senior ManagementIn some cases, being a little more sensitive to needs of employers, compassion.

Tarzana, CA

Former Employee – worked at CVS Group

Pros-Coworkers were extremely friendly and went out of their way to train/help me when I first started.
-Management worked to make sure you were happy on the job.
-There was always something new to learn/do.

Cons-Customers were often difficult to deal with.
-At a 24 hour store, you feel as if there's no "catching up" with the list of things you need to do.

La Jolla, CA

Current Employee – been working at CVS Group

ProsManagement is polite and goal-oriented. Work is easy. The stock aspect of the night shift job is basically just straightening the store. Running cashier is also easy.

ConsSometimes, customers can be difficult and will argue with you for a long time over a 25 cent coupon. Management is not completely organized. When I worked there it took them almost a month to send out my first paycheck.

Advice to Senior ManagementKeep treating your employees so well and they'll continue to work hard. Try to figure out glitches in your paycheck system to ensure employees get paid on time.
